Comments for MARGAUX:
Used during the Middle Ages in France.-- Miss Claire 12/7/2004
Punky Brewster (on the 1980's sitcom) had a friend named Margeaux.-- Anonymous User 12/19/2005
Chateau Margaux, in Margaux, France produced its first vintage in 1771. Margaux Hemingway was the oldest granddaughter of author Ernest Hemingway.-- diyMargaux 3/21/2006
Margaux, being a French variant, is pronounced with the accent on the second syllable.-- alsoMargaux 12/5/2006
Margaux is a town northwest of Bordeaux, France in the Médoc wine region. It is also the name of the French wine appellation, the premiere estate (1° Grand Cru classé) being Châteaux Margaux, widely considered one of the finest vintage wine makers in the world. The estate has been producing wine since the late 16th century, but only began to gain its reputation after 1705.-- alsoMargaux 12/5/2006
My name is Margaux and it is incorrect that the origin came with Margaux Hemingway. This is a HUGE falsehood. Margaux is the oldest form of Margot. You will know this because of Margaux, France. Which is city of France which is known worldwide for producing the finest wine. Similar to Bordeaux wines, Margaux wines are held in equally high esteem. Please correct the Margaux Hemingway portion. Yes, she is a famous Margaux. But she did NOT originate the spelling. Thank you!-- mpierre1 7/16/2007
Yes, there is a place called Margaux in France, but was this used as the spelling for the diminutive of Marguerite? As far as I know, -ot was the normal way to spell diminutives like this one, and Margaux Hemingway simply found the spelling of the place name prettier than Margot.
Funnily enough, Margaux is currently about twice as popular as Margot in France.-- aquamarina 11/14/2007
A little too fancy for me. If someone didn't know to say MAR-go they could have said MAR-gox or something. Other than that it's an ok name.-- aquarocky 5/31/2008
